Like millions of Americans, novelist Stephen King is not a fan of failed one-term, twice-impeached, and multiply-indicted former president Donald Trump.
On Tuesday, Trump’s defense team rested their case in support of the ex-president without him taking the stand to tell his side of the story.
While most legal experts agree that it was a wise move to not testify, Trump’s refusal directly contradicted numerous statements he’d made over the past couple of months, insisting that he would indeed defend himself against charges that he allegedly falsified business records to hide hush money payments he made in response to extramarital affairs he had with at least two women, Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.
After getting pelted with massive online mockery for his cowardice, Trump was also swatted down on social media by King, who branded Donnie as “chickenshit.”
King’s tweet has been “liked” 31,000 times and retweeted nearly 5,000 more since he posted it on Tuesday morning, and it has also elicited over 6,000 responses. Here’s a sampling:
